Countries

For it is, as your mayor has said An offense not only against history But an offense against humanity Separating families Husbands and wives and brothers and sisters And dividing a people Who wish to be joined together Freedom has many difficulties And democracy is not perfect But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in These countries that you throw your support behind Are looking down upon you, they don't fight by your side They hold you up as martyrs but laugh as you die The promises of valor, honor and pride Are nothing but a coffin full of lies Time for dissenting voices to cry No one's gonna take me alive They just keep playing these political games Reduce the value of our lives down to numbers for political gain Overreaching orders pushing people across borders Making puppet governments to kill with different names The roots are withered, rotten with corruption and waste Toy soldiers follow orders with a boot on your face Hate is overtaking so we must cooperate Stand up and fight! Now's the time for change! Now's the time for change! These countries that you throw your support behind Are looking down upon you, they don't fight by your side They hold you up as martyrs but laugh as you die The promises of valor, honor and pride Are nothing but a coffin full of lies Time for dissenting voices to cry No one's gonna take me alive They will make us wait We must cooperate We must make the world Into a better place Classical villains are gassing civilians They massacre millions and pass the burden of their deaths on the backs of our children So don't you ask me how I'm actually feeling Around the globe the savagery killing the masses is maddeningly chilling Fires light up the skies and there's drones in the air They've got you facial recognition, you better beware They got your bank and car info we need to be scared Cuz when they come for us, you know we better prepare When they come for us we won't go quietly in the night Cuz if you step to us we will not finish without a fight Punch a nazi, I'll die before I give up my rights Cuz no one's gonna take me alive No one's gonna take me alive No one's gonna take me alive No one's gonna take me alive
